About Something Better

A space for long-form thinking about building better systems, products, and lives.

What This Is

Something Better is an experiment in owned publishing. No algorithms, no character limits, no pressure to post daily. Just essays when there's something worth saying.

The focus is on depth over frequency, and clarity over cleverness. Each piece stands alone, exploring ideas that need more space than a tweet but less formality than a book.

Why This Exists

Three reasons:

  1. To think clearly. Writing forces clarity. Publishing forces accountability.
  2. To build in public. Learning happens best when shared, debated, and refined.
  3. To own distribution. Email lists and RSS feeds outlast platforms. If you're here, you chose to be.

What to Expect

Essays will cover a range of topics, but all unified by a focus on improvement:

  • Building better products and systems
  • Making better decisions under uncertainty
  • Creating sustainable practices and habits
  • Understanding complex domains deeply

Not all pieces will be perfect. Some ideas will age poorly. That's part of the process. Better to share imperfect ideas than perfect silence.
